Our old Aunty and Granny, Emily Horneville (Mrs Ornable) said, "
Pitara yaan
Muruwariki", meaning in English, "Muruwari
is good, sweet talk".
Lynette Oates (our special linguist) researched the Muruwari languge in the early 1970s and 1980s and we are thankful to her that we now have a good record of our language. Please learn
our language, or at least some of it, and
help us to keep it strong.

Investigate how our old people lived and learn something about our culture. Our old people tell us that these were special times. We had our own laws, food, relationships,marriage, customs, medicines, places where we lived, roads, music, and fun.

Connect with our mission days and see how Muruwari people were treated during the early days (1860s to 1970s). The mission days are a sad part of our history but our old people made it as happy as they could.
